GPS Not Recognized

This doesn't answer your question but I'd suggest giving it a try with a relatively new (and free) nav package called OpenCPN. I've been testing it as an eventual replacement for my Maptech OSN and have been favorably impressed so far. It's an easy install and loads quickly. http://sourceforge.net/projects/opencpn/ I just set this up and it looks quite good. It reads the NOAA vector charts without a fuss, unlike Capn Voyager. The way things are going with Capn, I do not see that any effort is being made to update and maintain the product since its sale in Sep 08 to Star Technologies, so this open source app is an even better idea. Will test at the boat yard shortly and report. Thanks for heads up. -- Good luck and good sailing. s/v Kerry Deare of Barnegat http://home.comcast.net/~kerrydeare |
